Express: Vaccine study of 23 million shows risk of 'heart problems' from Moderna or Pfizer jab.
THE RISK of heart inflammation after receiving doses of the Moderna or Pfizer Covid vaccines has be laid bare in a huge new study of 23 million people.
[.]
...epidemiologist Professor Rickard Ljung of the Swedish Medical Products Agency and his colleagues studied health data on a total of some 23.1 million people from Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden from late December 2020 to early October 2021.
The team looked for incidences of myocarditis and pericarditis and, for each case, considered the subject’s sex, age and vaccination specifics.
They focussed [sic] in particular on cases where the inflammatory heart conditions developed within 28 days of either an initial or second vaccination shot.
By the end of the study period, the researchers reported, 81 percent of the subjects had been vaccinated.

Overall, the team identified 1,077 cases of myocarditis and 1,149 of pericarditis among their four study cohorts.
Examining those subjects who had been jabbed, the team found that the likelihood of developing myocarditis was higher following a second dose of coronavirus vaccine.
Specifically, the risk appeared to increase by 75 percent with the BioNTech/Pfizer vaccine, and 557 percent with the Moderna vaccine.
Moreover, the team found that myocarditis risk following two jabs was highest for young men between 16–24 years of age.

The researchers wrote: “Results of this large cohort study indicated that both first and second doses of mRNA vaccines were associated with increased risk of myocarditis and pericarditis.["]
“For individuals receiving two doses of the same vaccine, risk of myocarditis was highest among young males after the second dose.
